"... O ye who believe! Ask blessings on him and salute him with a worthy salutation."(QUR'AN:AL-AHZAB:33:56)

"O Allah, I believed in Muhammad but did not see him; do not deprive me in the Gardens of his vision. Bestow his company upon me and cause me to die in his religion. Let me drink from his pool a quenching, pleasant, delightful drink after which we shall never thirst again. You are
powerful over everything. O Allah, convey to the soul of Muhammad my greetings and peace. O Allah, as I believed in Muhammad but did not see him, do not deprive me in the Gardens of his vision."

O Allah! I make the intention to invoke blessings on the Prophet, may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him, in compliance with Your Order and as an attestation of the Prophet sent by You, our master Muhammad, may Your blessings and peace be upon him; in his love and in my yearning for him and with the respect due to him as he merits it. Accept it from me by Your Grace and Kindness and remove the veil of negligence from my heart and make me among one of Your righteous servants.

"The Malay Underclass" (A Singapore story)

AlHamdulillaah!

A well-wriiten piece that shed much light to the problem, especially by going and listening to the 'ground', knowing its complexity and the ...

Some may try disregard this with the flimsy "excuse" that this is an "old issue" when the problem is still persisting and may even be worsening. Many underlying 'reasons' were perhaps previously omitted or overlooked, and existence of 'stereotyping and discrimination' in media and policies adopted may have been blatantly denied.

Analyzing and seeking to uncover what the true cause of the problem really is, must be persistently done as knowing it is half of the solution. So why fear alternative research and views?

May Allah SWT reward all who contributed to this effort and we pray that Allah SWT grant goodly end to every Muslim.

this claim of its Divine authorship. See post on Chapter 2 "THE CRITERIA" to briefly get an overview of approach.
